People focus so much on shelves and hangers, they forget the one thing that makes it all work: lighting. Without it, even the best-designed closet feels dark, cluttered, and uninspired.
1 – Start with Task Lighting
You don’t need to wire in a chandelier—LED strip lights, motion sensors, and clip-on lights can illuminate shelves and drawers. Place them strategically: inside drawers, under shelves, or near mirrors.
2 – Choose the Right Tone for the Right Mood
Cool light for clarity (think white shirts), warm light for luxury. You can even go for adjustable-tone bulbs. Avoid harsh fluorescent lighting—it flattens colors and makes the space feel cold.
3 – Lighting Adds Depth and Style
Besides visibility, lighting adds dimension. A soft spotlight on handbags or a lighted mirror turns function into fashion. Think of lighting not just as a tool—but as design.
Light isn’t decoration—it’s direction. Illuminate your style.
